Bills Take on the Jets Thursday in Toronto

The Buffalo Bills take on the New York Jets this Thursday in Toronto. It is the second regular season game in part of a five-year-deal where the Bills will play five regular season and three pre-season games in Toronto. As far as the game is concerned, it only has meaning to one of the teams here. The New York Jets are 5-6 and still fighting to remain in the playoff hunt. They won against Carolina last week 17-6 and are changing their strategy into more of a conservative approach where they run the ball a lot and take fewer chances. For the Bills, this game has no meaning except for showing pride and individual players trying to show that they deserve a spot on the team next year. The Bills started out slow this year and are out of playoff contention despite winning last week versus Miami 31-14.

This game should looks like a very close and interesting matchup. The Jets are led by running back Thomas Jones who has been having a very good season and is close to 1,000 yards and 10 touchdowns on the year. The Jets are a run first and pass second type team. When they have to pass, Sanchez has been mediocre at best for them. The Jets goal will be to run it up the Bills weak defensive line and tire them out. The Bills strength is their passing game led by quarterback Ryan Fitzpatrick. Although, the Bills don't have good passing stats on the season, this part of their game has been clicking lately. In the two games since Dick Jauron was fired, They have passed for over 200 yards in both games and Terrell Owens is averaging 7 catches, 147 yards, and one touchdown per-game.

Match-ups to look for:

Terrell Owens vs. Derrell Revis: Two of the best at their respective positions go at it versus one another

Thomas Jones vs. Bills Defensive Line: If the Bills D-Line can't stop Jones, it could be a long game for the Bills.

Mark Sanchez vs. Bills Secondary: Last time Sanchez played the Bills, he threw 5 interceptions, he'll have to limit his int's if the Jets want to avoid the upset.

Prediction: Bills 24-17 in an upset
